Definitions

  • This invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition containing saponin from medicinal ginseng, which is useful for the treatment and prevention of trouble which is due to glucocorticoids belonging to adrenocortical hormones.
  • glucocorticoids belonging to adrenocortical hormones such as cortisone
  • cortisone provide an indispensable medicine which protects a living body from stress, and takes part in conversion of proteins to glucides, metabolism of lipids, or the like.

They also cause serious trouble to the organs, such as atrophy of adrenal cortex.
  • the saponins of medicinal ginsengs effectively act against the atrophy of the adrenal due to glucocorticoids and the accompanying reduction of plasma cortisol. They are useful for the treatment of the adrenal atrophy, and effective against the side effects associated therewith.

It is, however, economically advisable to use a mixture of the compounds, rather than dividing it into the individual saponins.
  • Glucocorticoids belong to the adrenocortical hormones, and specifically include cortisone, hydrocortisone, corticosterone, prednisone prednisolone, methyl prednisolone, triamcinolone, dexamethasone, paramethasone and betamethasone, and their acetate, succinate, phosphate and sulfate, and alkali metal salts of said succinate, phosphate and sulfate.

  • the dosage of the glucocorticoid depends on the kind of the compound used, and the condition of a disease.
  • Acetate cortisone which is a typical example of the glucocorticoids, is dosed in the amount of 5 to 30 mg a day, though as much as 200 to 400 mg a day may be used for the initial treatment of an actute disease.
  • saponin and the glucocorticoid are used together.
  • any known dosage form may be employed for the glucocorticoids, whether it may be for oral or parenteral administration.

  • An injection should preferably contain 5 to 50 mg of saponin and 1 to 25 mg of glucocorticoid per milliliter.
  • saponin alone its dosage form may be chosen from among powders, tablets, injections, ointments, or the like. It can be formed into any such form of preparation.
  • compositions may be produced by any method well known in the art, using excipients and various kinds of additives appropriately selected from among those known in the art.
  • the toxicity of the saponin is so low that it has shown a LD 50 of 637 mg/kg when administered intraperitoneally into mice. Therefore, an adequate daily dosage of saponin does not produce any side effect on a human body.
  • the water saturated n-butanol layer was separated, and dried by vacuum distillation at a temperature not higher than 80° C.
  • the residue obtained was dissolved in 3 liters of methanol, and the solution was injected into 60 liters of ether under stirring. After the solution was left for one day as it was, the precipitate formed was collected by filtration, and dried under reduced pressure at a temperature not higher than 60° C., whereby 260 g of saponin were obtained.
  • 100 g of this saponin was subjected to silica gel column chromatography with a developing agent composed of n-butanol, acetic acid and water, whereby ginsenosides Rb 1 and Rg 1 were isolated.
  • the saponins were tested for their effects on the adrenal atrophy and the blood plasma cortisole, as follows:
  • the administration of the saponins was started on the 11th day.
  • 10 mg/kg of ginseng saponin, 2 mg/kg of ginsenoside Rb 1 and 2 mg/kg of ginsenoside Rg 1 were intraperitoneally administered every day for 10 days into the rats of the respective groups.
  • 1 ml/kg of a physiological saline solution was intraperitoneally administered for 10 days beginning on the 11th day. Then, the rats were abdominally cut, and the adrenal weight and the amount of the plasma cortisone were measured for each group of rats.
  • the results were as follows:
  • the saponin and its constituents are all markedly effective against the reduction in the weight due to the adrenal atrophy, and in the amount of plasma control. As described at B, they were also effective when administered prior to the glucocorticoid. Thus, the saponin and its constituents are useful for both treatment and prevention of diseases.
  • a 59-year-old woman whose case was diagnosed as chronic nephritis five years ago, started to take predonisolone two years ago, and had a buffalo neck during the fourth month thereafter. Accordingly, she started to take a powder containing 5 mg of prednisolone and 100 mg of saponin twice a day in the morning and the evening. Then, her buffalo neck was gradually improved, and after three months, her neck became distinguishable from the upper parts of her shoulders. She continued to take the powder for another three months, and her edema, languor, or the like disappeared.
  • a 32-year-old man whose case was diagnosed as chronic rheumatic arthritis, did not take any adrenocortical hormone. He took a powder containing 5 mg of prednisolone and 10 mg of saponin every day in the morning and the evening. After four months, the serious pain, edema and motor disturbance on his knee joints were completely improved without any side effect of steroid.
